    Beautiful little cafe with many delicious foods. i ordered the original acai bowl, coxinha, and kibe. my boo ordered frango a milanesa and risole with ham and cheese filling. everything tasted amazing and the portions are good size. we also tried their freshly squeezed cashew and pineapple mint juices. very tasty! there s limited parking in the back, so my boo and i looked for street parking instead.

    Food was so flavorful! we ordered fish, beef calderetta and the garlic rice with pickled veggies on the side, one of the best meals i ve had in a while from a restaurant! service was a little slow, it took about 20 minutes for us to get our drinks from when we sat down but the waitress was nice so we didn t mind much. atmosphere is a little loud, i think they rent out half of their restaurant for parties and events and there was one going on that night, but that s also a good thing, i ll keep them in mind next time i have an event lol. all in all, i d go there again because the food was top tier!

    This place has been here for over 30 years! and now i understand why! i love the atmosphere and the owner comes out and greets everyone. he even did a magic trick. the food is in a restaurant but it feels like a home cooked meal:) had the seafood platter with polenta. it was amazing! the grilled calamari steak was the best part of it. seafood pasta was so light and very delicious! but you have to try the clams! the sauce is soooo good!! dip some bread in it too! i would highly recommend this italian restaurant:)

    One review mentioned:

    Was visiting from out of town, and it was a cold, windy day, we were tired from visiting and walking around golden gate. as soon as we sat down, a friendly aunty gave us the menu, and i ordered crispy noodles, bo kho (beef stew noodle), and combination pho. the friendly aunty said they dont have crispy noodles but recommended their garlic noodles instead with pork chop and chicken. oh man, it was goooood! the pork chop and chicken were slightly sweet and salty, with extra umami. everything was perfectly seasoned, the beef stew noodle and the pho were hot, it warmed up my bones, and suddenly the outside wind wasnt a problem anymore. i had a scratchy throat before eating, but after eating, my scratchy throat went away! delicious food. very friendly and warm service from the aunty who was our server (did i mention the food was good? ) and we ordered a garlic noodle and beef stew noodle to-go, to eat for breakfast after our long drive. 10/10 would eat here again. good pricing too! parking: parking spots throughout the front of the stores like in main street america. but theres traffic to and from. you have to back out onto traffic.

    Talk about a random hidden gem and a lucky find. stopped here to grab something to eat before heading to sfo for a late flight, so glad we did! had one of the best sandwiches ive ever had here, grabbed it to go but waited at the restaurant while it was made. total local haunt, fantastic atmosphere, and staff was super friendly. girlfriend said this place ruined sandwiches for her since we wouldnt be able to find anything close where were from. the dutch crunch bread is amazing and the sandwiches are loaded. will absolutely go here again when were back in south sf.

    While driving through south san francisco this morning i happen to glance at a sign . cocina milonga argentinian empanadas . i parked on the street and made my way into the store, i was greeted immediately with a a big smile by a gentleman behind the service area, i took a look at the menu on the wall and ordered four empanadas. one ham and cheese with black forest ham and mozzarella cheese, my second choice was the chorizo empanadas with argentinian style chorizo, provolone cheese, served with chimichurri, i also ordered the fugazzeta filled with roasted onions, white cheddar and mozzarella cheese seasoned with oregano, and my last choice had to be the beef empanada with ground beef, onions olives, hard boiled egg and raisins. i had to make room for one of their dessert pastries and ordered the pastel de manzana, puff pastry filled with an apple and coconut filling. the mate cocido had to be ordered to compliment my order from the barista. i enjoyed the baked artisan empanadas (known as turn overs in english) and finished every morsel. during my conversation with the owner he mentioned that they also service the chase center at the portal 30 pepsi club. the place was spotless and had a nice view from the window seats with a nice ambiance listening to argentinian music facing the alina way. the location is tuck away in the opposite corner across the street from see s candies.
